Experience a unique blend of sailing and high-speed land racing with the HobbyKing BAT-1 RC Land Yacht—a precision-engineered, wind-powered vehicle designed for outdoor enthusiasts and RC hobbyists. Built for performance and realism, this innovative land yacht lets you capture the power of the wind and transform open spaces into your personal racetrack.
Wind-Powered Performance
The BAT-1 operates entirely on wind energy, eliminating the need for motors or fuel. Its optimized sail design efficiently captures airflow, allowing the yacht to glide smoothly across hard-packed sand, dry lake beds, or paved surfaces. In the right conditions, it can even reach speeds greater than the wind itself, delivering an exhilarating and eco-friendly racing experience.
Precision 2-Channel Control
Equipped with a dual-channel RC system, the BAT-1 offers realistic and responsive handling:
• Steering Control: Direct the front wheel with precision for smooth navigation
• Sail Trim Adjustment: Fine-tune sail angle to maximize speed and adapt to wind conditions
This setup mirrors real-world sailing techniques, making it both engaging and skill-based.
Lightweight & Durable Construction
Engineered for both speed and durability, the BAT-1 features:
• Aerodynamic molded chassis for reduced drag
• Carbon fiber mast and boom for strength and minimal weight
• Reinforced rear axle for stability
• Ball-bearing wheels for ultra-smooth rolling
The combination of lightweight materials and robust design ensures consistent performance across various terrains.

• Smooth acceleration and gliding

Whether cruising or racing, the BAT-1 offers a true land sailing experience.
